Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Capel, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste
Before booking anyone

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Capel questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Capel?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Do you come to Capel?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Capel and the rest of Carmarthenshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
